Brizard on Ladd: “Chelsea is going to
be another one of those mainstays in the middle of the field.
We’re happy to have her back there. She’s a hard worker
and she will just keep fighting until there’s no one left
standing. She’s a smart player, she’s knows the game,
and we’re looking for good things from her.”

In 2011 (Freshman): Chelsea made her presence felt
as a freshman in 2011, signaling a bright future both defensively

Chelsea scored her first collegiate goal against Longwood on Sept.

for the game-tying score. She finished with four shots, two of
which were on goal, and posted a .250 shot percentage. She was
named to the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll.

school soccer as a midfielder at Vanden High School.
